Chapter 192: Chapter 194: High Salaries
"Madam Chen, your beloved granddaughter really is like a cherub by the side of Guanyin, white and chubby, clearly a child blessed with great fortune!""The Chen family really knows how to raise children, just see how well they’ve brought up this young girl!"
"Oh, Guibao is even wearing leather shoes! Were they bought at the department store? I have never seen anyone pamper their granddaughter as much as you!"
Ma Xiulian listened, happier than if she had been praised herself. She continuously laughed, her mouth refusing to close, telling them how both the dress and the leather shoes were bought by Jiang Manyun for her beloved granddaughter.
The younger wives grew even more envious. Guibao, the child of the Chen family, sure lived a charmed life!
Not only was she adored and pampered by Ma Xiulian who usually favored boys over girls, but she was also beloved by the entire family of Factory Director Gu.
The entire commune knew just how much wealth and status the Gu family possessed.
Now that Jiang Manyun had a job at the department store and was in a leadership position, her salary must be quite high!
Zhao Fangfang, who was always keen on comparing herself to Helian Qiao, was utterly green with envy.
She was the daughter of a company leader, but she had never worn such beautiful and stylish dresses and leather shoes. Why should that fatty get to wear them?!
And they were gifts from Gu Tingyun’s mother!!
As she was thinking about it, she saw Gu Tingyun emerging from the bathroom and ran over to him, saying, "Tingyun, let’s play shuttlecock! I just made this new one yesterday. I haven’t let anyone else play with it."
As usual, Gu Tingyun replied icily, "No."
He then turned and looked at the little hamster, showing no coldness when he asked: "Guibao, where is your family’s soap?"
The fastidious music-lover Gu Tingyun, would always wash his hands with soap after using the bathroom.
"The soap is kept in the cabinet."
Knowing his obsession, Helian Qiao took him back to the room to fetch the soap.
The soap, a luxury item, was kept inside by Ma Xiulian the night before.
There were so many people present today, and if someone carelessly used the ivories, her heart would ache for it.
Zhao Fangfang followed the two into the room, saying, "Gu Tingyun, we also have soap at home. If you play with me, I’ll give it to you."
Gu Tingyun ignored her, because he knew that once he responded, even if he rejected her, Zhao Fangfang would speak more.
Ignoring her outright, he waited until she got bored and left on her own, or else she would get punched by the little hamster, crying and running home to report the attack.
After enough run-ins, Jiang Manyun specifically talked to him and asked him to keep an eye on Guibao and stop hitting Zhao Fangfang.
After all, Zhao Mancao was the company leader, and if he decided to retaliate, the Chen family would have a hard time.
Since Gu Tingyun ignored her, Zhao Fangfang continued: "Gu Tingyun, my mom also bought malted milk from the department store. If you come to my house to play, I’ll give you some malted milk. It’s so sweet and delicious!"
Her tone was full of boastful pride. After all, a jar of malted milk costs two dollars, which nobody else in the entire commune could afford.
"Bang——"
The next second, Gu Tingyun took Guibao’s hand and quickly walked into the room, closing the door behind them.
Zhao Fangfang instantly puckered her lips in indignation. After waiting at the door for a while, she finally turned around and ran off to go play with her friends.

In the yard, Old Madam Li, accompanied by her two grandsons, showed up again with her face blue and purple, and she came empty-handed.
Someone with sharp eyes noticed and intentionally asked in a loud voice, "Oh! Old Madam Li, as the mother-in-law, how come you didn’t bring anything to the banquet?"
